Nonlinear hysteresis effects in piezoelectric fast steering mirrors (FSMs) are major culprits of deteriorating the servo performance and reducing the robustness of a control system. In order to compensate for such nonlinearities, this paper presents an identification and compensation method of piezoelectric hysteresis using frequency response measurements. The relationship between hysteresis curves and frequency response was analyzed using various amplitudes of input voltage and measured output displacements. Results proved that hysteresis curves could be reconstructed based on frequency response measurements. By utilizing an inverse function from reconstructed hysteresis curves, parameters for the compensation model were identified. Experimental results showed that the maximum range of output displacement at the nominal position due to hysteresis was significantly decreased by 76% when the hysteresis model identified by the proposed frequency-domain method was used. In addition, the compensated frequency response showed consistent results regardless of input amplitudes, implying that linear dynamics of the piezoelectric FSM could be separately measured.
[Objective] The objective of this study was to investigate the reliability of smartphone-based measurements of the upper body, thigh, and shin segmental angles, and the hip and knee joint angles when walking. [Method] The sample size of this study included eight young and healthy college students. In this study, smartphones were used to determine the changes in angles when the subjects walked with smartphones attached to their torso (upper body), thigh, and shin. The obtained angles represented segmental angles for the torso, thigh, and shin, and were later used to calculate hip and knee joint angles. Measurements were taken and then the test-retest method was used to evaluate the agreement between the test and retest results. [Results] According to the results, a very high reliability for the torso and shin segmental angles (ICC>0.75) and a high reliability for the thigh segmental angle and hip and knee joint angles (ICC>0.60) were displayed. [Conclusion] According to the results of this study, it was established that smartphones can be sufficiently used as devices for gait analysis.

[Purpose] To investigate the correlation between joint position sense (JPS) during hip abduction and static/dynamic balance abilities. [Method] The study enrolled 22 healthy college undergraduates and a smartphone application known as Clinometer was used to measure JPS during hip abduction using the passive setting/active reproduction. Balance ability was measured at levels 12, 7, and 3 of the Biodex Balance System. The JPS error during hip abduction was correlated with balance ability in relation to sway level. [Results] Error in JPS during hip abduction was moderately correlated with all balance scores at all sway levels (r≥0.38, p≤0.04 for all), except for the anterior-posterior balance at levels 12 and 3 (r≤0.24, p≥0.30 for both). [Conclusion] A significant correlation existed between JPS during hip abduction and balance ability, regardless of sway level. Therefore, adequate sensory training of the hip joint is needed during balance training.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of static stretching of the calf muscle on ankle position sense and dynamic balance ability following microwave diathermy. Participants were 28 healthy young students in their 20 s, who were divided into a microwave diathermy stretching group (MSG) and a stretching group (SG). A microwave was emitted to the calf muscle area to participants in the MSG. Static stretching was performed by standing on a quadriceps board for 15 minutes. The angle of the wedge was set to a range of 15–25°, representing a level of pain and discomfort allowed by the subjects. Before and after intervention, ankle dorsi-plantar flexion joint position sense (JPS) and dynamic balance ability were measured. The group source affected JPS error of dorsi-plantar flexion (p < 0.05) and JPS error increased with the SG more than the MSG. There was an increase in the dynamic balance score in both groups after the intervention compared to before the intervention. Microwave therapy prior to stretching can preserve JPS and balance ability, thereby reducing the risk of injuries from activities after stretching.

[Purpose]The purpose of this study was to examine changes in muscle fatigue of the erector spinae, rectus abdominis, quadratus lumborum, and gluteus maximus muscles during repetitive lifting using the squat-to-lift and stoop-to-lift techniques. [Method] Participants were 17 healthy young students in their 20 s. The change in the median frequency of the surface electromyography signal was calculated between baseline and the fatigue trial, where fatigue was self-reported. [Results] A significant decrease in median frequency was identified for the quadratus lumborum and gluteus maximus muscles using the squat-to-lift technique (p < 0.05). [Conclusion] The squat-to-lift technique is associated with fatigue of the quadratus lumborum and gluteus maximus muscles and may not be preferable to the stoop-to-lift technique in all cases.
